Grassroots! Create a Ron Paul Ad for the CNN/YouTube Debate!
CNN has requested for the campaign to submit a 30 second ad to be used as a bumper when going in to commercial during the November 28 CNN/YouTube Debate. The national campaign has asked us, the Ron Paul Grassroots Supporters, to be the ones to develop the ad to be shown!
Please let everyone know as quickly as possible because we don't have much time. Here are the rules ... READ THESE VERY CAREFULLY:
- Ad must be exactly 30 seconds; no more, no less.
- Ad will be shown for the FIRST TIME EVER PUBLICLY during the debate. Any video uploaded to YouTube for public viewing or accidentally placed on the Internet will be disqualified. Carefully guard your work and be sure to upload your video as
"private" - Ad must be available in both NTSC-ready format (for TV viewing) and smaller YouTube-size for review.
- NO copyright violations. Must use original music, video and images, or need to have permission. If permission received, documentation MUST be provided for review.
- Ads will be sent to us no later than Friday, November 23 at 8:00 AM Eastern Time, no exceptions.
- Currently submit any questions or ads to rp.ad.comp@gmail.com. I'm hoping to have another available option for submission very soon -- see the Ron Paul Ad Competition channel for regular updates.














What became of this?
Is this still happening? I've heard nothing about it lately at all.
I take my marching orders from the Constitution!
TAX BOMB...... BOOM!
The response has been explosive! It's fun, easy and fast.
...they are becoming INSTANT Ron Paul supporters!

I don't do videos
but if I did I'd use a fife and drum.
My message would be to join the revolution to take back our country.
The Secret Back Door
Plan B.2 - Draft the Good Doctor
Would you like to guarantee Dr. Ron Paul appears on the 2008 Presidential ballot?
But why do we need a guarantee? The establishment wouldn’t try to cheat the Good Doctor, Heavens no. He will win the Republican nomination fair and square.
When the establishment refused to allow Dr. Paul to participate in the Iowa forum,
locked his supporters out of the Texas straw poll,
changed the rules for primary voting in New Hampshire,
Delaware, Connecticut, Maryland, West Virginia,
and tried to exclude him from the Michigan Debates …
those were just flukes, errors, aberrations … right?
And FOX is “Fair and Balanced.”
There is a way to insure Our Chance to Restore the Republic.
Open the backdoor. Become a delegate to the Libertarian Party Convention.
Go online and Join the Libertarian Party [www.lp.org] before December 31st, 2007. A basic Sustaining Membership http://www.lp.org/organiz... (Article 5) costs only $25 dollars.
The LP Convention will be held May 22-28 at the Adams Mark Hotel - Denver, Colorado.
Am I suggesting that you change your Republican Party affiliation?
Absolutely not!
I am saying we should play the political game and hedge our bets for Dr. Paul.
The Libertarian Party already has ballot status on nearly every state in the nation.
If you are an Independent join at http://www.lp.org/members...
If you are a Republican join at http://www.lp.org/members...
If you are a Democrat join at http://www.lp.org/members...
If you are a Libertarian (75%+ of you already support Dr. Paul) then for crying out loud renew your membership at http://www.lp.org/members...
If you are an Independent, Republican, or Democrat and you are hesitant to join the Libertarian Party then
support Dr. Paul today by hedging the bet for 2008 and don’t renew in 2009.
This is about doing the
Big Thing the Right Thing - Right NOW!
We the People have shown we will come out in force for the Good Doctor
and the Secret Plan is very simple. (It’s cleverly hidden below.)
The “Secret Plan:”
1) Swarm the LP convention,
2) Make one by-law change like so,
ARTICLE 12: PRESIDENTIAL AND VICE-PRESIDENTIAL CAMPAIGNS
2. No candidate may be nominated for President or Vice-President who is ineligible under the United States Constitution, {{edit this -- who has not expressed a willingness to accept the nomination of the Party, }}or who is not a member of the Party.
3) Nominate or “Draft” Dr. Paul,
4) “Officially” announce Ron Paul’s nomination AFTER the Republican National Convention.
Rationale:
American politics has become an empty theater devoted only to concentrating power for an anointed few. The evidence of that are the constant attacks on Dr. Paul’s campaign. The fact that Dr. Paul dominates straw polls nationwide yet is maligned by the establishment and in the media is almost a footnote.
If we the people retain the mechanism to nominate Dr. Paul then the establishment loses its control over the process. They cannot simply dismiss Dr. Paul without running the risk of having their candidate hijacked.
Imagine … the people controlling the process. That’s pretty democratic.
Imagine … restoring the republic. That’s pretty republican.
Imagine … following the Constitution. That’s pretty libertarian.
Everybody wins!
Either way it's good for the Constitution, good for America, good for Dr. Paul, and good for us because we the people would finally have a man we can all vote for and know we are doing the right thing. We simply have to beat the establishment at its own game.
Besides, Dr. Paul might actually appear twice on ballots.
Worse things could happen.
My grass-roots are showing
I bought airtime to run a RP radio spot on My local station and I heard it today for the first time! I was proud to have made a small contribution to this great undertaking. I can reach more people this way than going door to door. It is My sincere hope that someone will hear the words of hope and the possibility of regaining our status in the world as the great beacon of hope and freedom. We can do this people, just keep Your eye on the glittering prize, LIBERTY
Nice!

And show parts of his speaches.
Repeatedly drum home the facts that there will be no more war in Iraq, IRS or income tax returns to file if Ron Paul is elected President. Of course you have to let the American people know that the federal government will be smaller but well funded from sources such as tax on alcohol, tobacco and firearms. (I don't think most people understand that the federal government does not need our income and that the Congress just blows it anyway.)
And show protions of his speaches in the commercials so people can see his strength, the ads he has so far might be putting people to sleep. Keep it upbeat and call for action. "Regster to vote with your county and vote for me on __________."
I'll make some copyright free music for anyone who wants it.
I made this in like 20 minutes for whoever wants to use it:

I imagine a "different Americans talking over it giving an inspirational message" type commercial.
Thinking about it we really ought to make a collaboration thread for anyone who wants to contribute something.
Anyway I'm off to make more of a rockish one.
